Sculpture Emphasis
Making sculpture isn’t just about creating objects; it’s a way of making art that mirrors the physical world and can influence the way we perceive space and scale. Leveraging these elements as expressive tools can lead to transformative and eye-opening experiences for the viewer.
As a sculpture student, you will work with a diverse range of materials and techniques; from metal welding to mold-making, from casting and carving to site-specific installations. Your future opens wide when you master a wide variety of three-dimensional fabrication methods. The skills you develop in sculpture are highly transferable, opening doors to various careers within and beyond the fine arts. Furthermore, in today’s digital age, having tangible, manual skills can set you apart and give you a competitive edge.
